1 20071462 The tyrosine phosphorylation of nephrin is reported to regulate podocyte morphology via the Nck adaptor proteins.
2 20071462 In mouse podocytes, Pak2 was predominantly phosphorylated, concentrated at the tips of the cellular processes, and its expression and/or phosphorylation were further increased when differentiated.
3 20071462 Overexpression of rat nephrin in podocytes increased Pak1/2 phosphorylation, which was abolished when the Nck binding sites were mutated.
4 20071462 Furthermore, dominant-negative Nck constructs blocked the Pak1 phosphorylation induced by antibody-mediated cross linking of nephrin.
5 20071462 Transient transfection of constitutively kinase-active Pak1 into differentiated mouse podocytes decreased stress fibers, increased cortical F-actin, and extended the cellular processes, whereas kinase-dead mutant, kinase inhibitory construct, and Pak2 knockdown by shRNA had the opposite effect.
6 20071462 In a rat model of puromycin aminonucleoside nephrosis, Pak1/2 phosphorylation was decreased in glomeruli, concomitantly with a decrease of nephrin tyrosine phosphorylation.
7 20071462 The tyrosine phosphorylation of nephrin is reported to regulate podocyte morphology via the Nck adaptor proteins.
8 20071462 In mouse podocytes, Pak2 was predominantly phosphorylated, concentrated at the tips of the cellular processes, and its expression and/or phosphorylation were further increased when differentiated.
9 20071462 Overexpression of rat nephrin in podocytes increased Pak1/2 phosphorylation, which was abolished when the Nck binding sites were mutated.
10 20071462 Furthermore, dominant-negative Nck constructs blocked the Pak1 phosphorylation induced by antibody-mediated cross linking of nephrin.
11 20071462 Transient transfection of constitutively kinase-active Pak1 into differentiated mouse podocytes decreased stress fibers, increased cortical F-actin, and extended the cellular processes, whereas kinase-dead mutant, kinase inhibitory construct, and Pak2 knockdown by shRNA had the opposite effect.
12 20071462 In a rat model of puromycin aminonucleoside nephrosis, Pak1/2 phosphorylation was decreased in glomeruli, concomitantly with a decrease of nephrin tyrosine phosphorylation.
